NAME

cppcheck - Simple syntax checking of C/C++.

SYNOPSIS

cppcheck [--all] [--auto-dealloc [file]] [--error-exitcode=[n]] [--force] [--help] [-I[dir]] [-j[jobs]] [--quiet] [--style] [--unused-functions] [--verbose] [--version] [--xml] [file or path] ...

DESCRIPTION

A tool for static C/C++ code analysis Intended to complement the checking of the compiler. Checks for: memory leaks, mismatching allocation-deallocation, buffer overrun, and many more.

OPTIONS

Analyze given C/C++ files for common errors.

-a, --all

Normally a message is only shown if cppcheck is sure it has found a bug. When this option is given, all messages are shown.

--auto-dealloc [file]

Suppress warnings about classes that have automatic deallocation
The classnames must be provided in plain text - one classname / line - in a .lst file.
This option can be given several times, allowing you to provide several .lst files.

--error-exitcode=[n]

If errors are found, integer [n] is returned instead of default 0. EXIT_FAILURE is returned if arguments are not valid or if no input files are provided. Note that your operating system can modify this value, e.g. 256 can become 0.

-f, --force

Force checking of files that have a lot of configurations. Error is printed if such a file is found so there is no reason to use this by default.

-h, --help

Print help text.

-I [dir]

Give include path. Give several -I parameters to give several paths. First given path is checked first. If paths are relative to source files, this is not needed.

-j [jobs]

Start [jobs] threads to do the checking work.

-q, --quiet

Only print something when there is an error.

-s, --style

Check coding style.

--unused-functions

Check if there are unused functions

-v, --verbose

More detailed error reports

--version

Print out version information

--xml

Write results in xml to error stream
